Brian Shimkovitz was on a Fulbright scholarship in Ghana when he got hooked on the cassette culture of the region. Street vendors hawked West African recordings in myriad genres, from highlife to African disco, old left-field soul to curious local pop. Much of his style is largely unheard outside of West Africa.Recently at Neue Zukunft, Sameheads · often with Amiroo, B-Manesh, Prinzpfiffig, none of them here that night
